fs: take the ACL checks to common code
bury posix_acl_..._masq() variants
kill boilerplates around posix_acl_create_masq()
generic_acl: no need to clone acl just to push it to set_cached_acl()
kill boilerplate around posix_acl_chmod_masq()
reiserfs: cache negative ACLs for v1 stat format
xfs: cache negative ACLs if there is no attribute fork
9p: do no return 0 from ->check_acl without actually checking
vfs: move ACL cache lookup into generic code
CIFS: Fix oops while mounting with prefixpath
xfs: Fix wrong return value of xfs_file_aio_write
fix devtmpfs race
caam: don't pass bogus S_IFCHR to debugfs_create_...()
get rid of create_proc_entry() abuses - proc_mkdir() is there for purpose
asus-wmi: ->is_visible() can't return negative
fix jffs2 ACLs on big-endian with 16bit mode_t
9p: close ACL leaks
ocfs2_init_acl(): fix a leak
